Hi,
I’m new to this, and just recently bought a used 170 reefer and was told I’d be getting everything for it to run. However after sorting through what I have I was told I’m missing some stuff. I’m looking for the part that’s in the skimmer that’s on the back of the tank that I guess would be considered the protein skimmer, I’m missing the top cup that catch’s the waste. How do I find what I’m looking for and I’m really hoping someone can lead me In the right direction and maybe even share some pictures. Thanks in advance

Hello it would look something like this. I think this what you're asking for at least. 1659406630245.png

In the worst case scenario that you cant find it, you can always make the little cup thing yourself by cutting the top off a water bottle and sticking it to the inside of another cup that fits around it snugly.
